Construction with Plastics

The development of application-oriented and at the same time cost-effective plastic molded parts requires a well-founded understanding of the interactions between component design, material system, processing and mold. You will receive basic knowledge for successful construction with plastics under material, design, production and application aspects. You will learn how to obtain and interpret material parameters, how to save time and money in the design process with simulation tools, and how to take joining and connecting elements into account in the design. After attending the seminar, you will be able to discuss and evaluate plastic components professionally and to identify and avoid design errors in plastics. The further training is also ideal as an entry point for designers who want to replace metal components with plastic in line with the lightweight construction trend.
